In the television category, kudos to our favorite cops and lawyers for getting an ensemble acting nomination. Also, Mariska Hargitay of Law & Order SVU was nominated for lead actress in a drama. And while snubbed for a Golden Globe, our friend Justin Kirk was nominated for best actor in a TV movie for his amazing work in Angels America; Al Pacino, Jeffrey Wright, Meryl Streep, Mary-Louise Parker, and Emma Thompson were also nominated for their roles in Angels. To bring it full circle, Ben Shenkman, who also starred in Angels, played the defendant's lawyer on Law & Order last night.

A few upcoming Gothamist related things to check out. Plus the week in full.

When two Long Island girls found out they were dating the same guy, they trashed his car AND beat him up. Wow, they make them tough in Long Island. The Post coverage is awesome, with tidbits like "'She was acting too sweet. I knew she was up to something,'" and "...a small army of pouty teen girls" were waiting for the double-crosser. Newsday now tells one of the girls is filing rape charges. Law & Order SVU, anyone?

Page Six grossed me out by mentioning how Billy Joel is dating a young woman who looks a lot like his daughter. I'm probably illin' from that because I watched a rerun of this bizarre episode of Law & Order SVU that involved child pornography, pedophilia, and sending Detective Stabler to Prague to about 15 minutes. Anyway, Alexa Ray Joel is a pretty young woman and probably looks like most other young women these days - blond, skinny, cute - so it doesn't seem that bad, except for the whole Billy Joel dating much younger women thing, which is par for the course if you're rich and famous. So thanks Page Six for continuing to be rabble rousing, occasional stomach turning, scoopers.
